Thanks for the replies, guys. Are the concentric rings (not the chronos), vaguely depicted in the photo, a sign that it's legit? (from my understanding the rep dial lacks these rings)
Hmm, regarding the lume looking funny, is probably due to reflections?
I've compared this side by side with a gen dial and can't discern any differences at all, but I'm also a novice, so I don't know.
I'm thinking about purchasing a BCE and doing some mods if possible (gen dial and bezel) but need som help. Came across this site for Breitling parts: http://www.swisswatchstore.co.uk/products/Breitling-Parts (other shops offering Breitling parts out there?)
Description:
Breitling Cockpit Steel Bezel with Riders and Screws A49350
Will this bezel fit a BCE and if so, which version? Also, which version if best if one are going to change the bezel and dial?
Some help would be much appreciated!
In addition to my previous post, I've found another site that carry quite a few very cheap dials (iwc, breitling, omega), the same kind of dials that concepta is referring to, I believe, however I'm not sure whether you can order online but it could be worth a shot:

That's all I got
I'm constantly asking myself; "why", when witnessing abundances of this caliber, which creates a general dislike towards collecting reps too... I assume that the difference lays within this particular collector's possibility to really make a difference in this world with his capital, opposed to people collecting fairly inexpensive reps. In the end, people are starving, while this guy adorn his wrist with million of dollars(?)
Sorry for the rambling - got a sickening feel in my gut
Thanks guys!
Actually one member contacted me, willing to sell a "closed factory"-franken, so I don't any need help with my project. Mods can close this thread.
